a late update

Okay, this is a late update for people, but Serenity(house of us) is holding a Beltaine party tomorrow night. Here's the details.

What it is:
a party where we will provide food(free and vegetarian)(1)
a party where people should bring musical instruments/drums
a party where people can celebrate the coming of summer

What it isn't:
a party where we will provide drink(byob or donation)(2)
a sex party(3)
a party for "game"(4)

(1)if you cannot get through a meal without MEAT! then feel free to bring your own and a grill. The grill we'll be using will be veggie, but we're open to people cooking meat either in the fire or on a seperate grill, josef_grey and drydem are doing the cooking and buying of food and since neither of them are meat eaters, they found it hard to justify buying meat.

(2)we will have alcohol that you can give us money for, but it's too expensive to provide free drinks for everyone.

(3)people have a tendency to think of Beltaine as "sex-day". It is and it isn't. The way we practice sex, namely as a non-procreative activity, is not Beltaine. Beltaine is a fertility holiday. The point of Beltaine sex is to make babies. With this in mind, if you want to come to our party to make a baby. um. sure, we'll give you access to a room in which to try. Otherwise, sex is purely a party thing rather than a holiday thing.

(4)this is an open party and while I am sure that people will talk "game" it is not a "game" party. all are welcome and so forth.

the opinions above are drydem's and should not be held against any other in the household.

maybe not the best turn of phrase in light of prohibition 2.

I have a pair of questions for you.
What is the most up-to-date listing of the rules?
How would you feel about the rules appearing in a script?

I should have started at the bottom of today's lj page instead of the top, cause this is the third time I've posted this. I'll bring my flute, pic, wooden thing (flute like), recorder, and guitar. Anyone can play them if they like (don't break my flute or I'll break you) but I do not make any promises to play myself...
